Approximately what percentage of Earth’s radius is represented by the crust?

Physics

irina [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Approximately 1% of the Earth's radius is represented by the crust.

Explanation:

Earth is composed of three different layers with different compositions-

The first layer of the earth is the Earth's crust which is brittle and very thin.

The other layers or shells are mantle and the core. These two layers have almost same thickness but the mantle occupies the larger volume of about 84% while the core occupies about 15% of the total volume.

Therefore, crust represents about only 1% of Earth's radius.

Un puente de acero de 100 m de largo a 8° C aumenta su temperatura a 24°C ¿Cuánto medirá su longitud? Valor del coeficiente de d
BartSMP [9]

La longitud <em>final</em> del puente de acero es 100.018 metros.

Asumamos que la dilatación <em>térmica</em> experimentada por el puente de acero es <em>pequeña</em>, de modo que podemos emplear la siguiente aproximación <em>lineal</em> para determinar la longitud <em>final</em> del puente de acero (L), en metros:

L = L_{o}\cdot [1+\alpha\cdot (T_{f}-T_{o})] (1)

Donde:

  • L_{o} - Longitud inicial del puente, en metros.
  • \alpha - Coeficiente de dilatación, sin unidad.
  • T_{o} - Temperatura inicial, en grados Celsius.
  • T_{f} - Temperatura final, en grados Celsius.

Si tenemos que L_{o} = 100\,m, \alpha = 11.5\times 10^{-6}, T_{o} = 8\,^{\circ}C y T_{f} = 24\,^{\circ}C, entonces la longitud final del puente de acero es:

L = (100\,m)\cdot [1+(11.5\times 10^{-6})\cdot (24\,^{\circ}C - 8\,^{\circ}C)]

L = 100.018\,m

La longitud <em>final</em> del puente de acero es 100.018 metros.

A 15.0 cm object is 12.0 cm from a convex mirror that has a focal length of -6.0 cm. What is the height of the image produced by
Vlad [161]

Answer: D. 5cm

Explanation:

Given the following :

Focal length (f) = - 6.0 cm

Height of object = 15.0cm

Distance of object from mirror (u) = 12.0cm

Height of image produced by the mirror =?

Firstly, we calculate the distance of the image from the mirror.

Using the mirror formula

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/-6 - 1/12

1/v = - 1/6 - 1/12

1/v = (- 2 - 1) / 12

1/v = - 3 / 12

v = 12 / - 3

v = - 4

Using the relation :

(Image height / object height) = (- image distance / object distance)

Image height / 15 = - (-4) / 12

Image height / 15 = 4 / 12

Image height = (15 × 4) / 12

Image height = 60 / 12

Image height = 5cm

A zero-order reaction has a constant rate of 2.30×10−4 M/s. If after 80.0 seconds the concentration has dropped to 1.50×10−2 M,
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Initial concentration of the reactant = 3.34 × 10^(-2)M

Explanation:

Rate of reaction = 2.30×10−4 M/s,

Time of reaction = 80s

Final concentration = 1.50×10−2 M

Initial concentration = Rate of reaction × Time of reaction + Final concentration

= 2.30×10−4 M/s × 80s + 1.50×10−2 M = 3.34 × 10^(-2)M

Initial concentration = 3.34 × 10^(-2)M
